The Anton Paar EasyDens & SmartRef combo pairs a digital density meter with a digital refractometer. Used together, they determine the alcohol content of fermenting or finished beer precisely - even if you never took an original gravity reading.
What's included
- EasyDens digital density meter
- SmartRef digital refractometer
What the combo does
- Combines density and refractive index measurement
- Determines wort extract content
- Fermentation tracking and visualisation in the Brew Meister app
- Automatic temperature correction (ATC)
- Works for light, standard and strong beer
Combo results (Brew Meister)
- Alcohol content: within ±0.5 %v/v
- Real extract: within ±0.2 %w/w
- Original gravity: within ±0.8 %w/w
Individual specs
- EasyDens: about 2 ml sample, density accuracy ±0.001 g/cm³, SG range 0.700-1.200, result in seconds
- SmartRef: 0.4 ml sample (a few drops), 0-85 °Brix, accuracy 0.2 °Brix
How to use
Measure the same beer sample on both instruments and the Brew Meister app combines the readings into alcohol, real extract and original gravity.
Add the EasyDens Protection Cover and SmartRef Protection Cover to keep both clean. Ideal for serious home brewers who want lab-style numbers without a lab.
